Excel Tools

Hi All,

We are currently on Appian 20.2 and Excel Tools (v2.2.9). I have observed below depreacted Appian APIs are being used in the plug-in (From Health Check Report).

Excel Tools (com.appiancorp.ps.exceltools) references private and deprecated Appian APIs
[private] com.appiancorp.common.xml.XmlBeanSerializer.populateObject(java.lang.Object, org.w3c.dom.Node)
[private] com.appiancorp.services.ASLIdentity.getIdentity()
[private] com.appiancorp.type.TypeRef.getId()
[deprecated] com.appiancorp.services.ServiceContext.getIdentity()
[deprecated] com.appiancorp.suiteapi.common.ServiceLocator.getContentService(com.appiancorp.services.ServiceContext)
[deprecated] com.appiancorp.suiteapi.common.ServiceLocator.getGroupService(com.appiancorp.services.ServiceContext)
[deprecated] com.appiancorp.suiteapi.common.ServiceLocator.getProcessAnalyticsService2(com.appiancorp.services.ServiceContext)
[deprecated] com.appiancorp.suiteapi.common.ServiceLocator.getProcessDesignService(com.appiancorp.services.ServiceContext)
[deprecated] com.appiancorp.suiteapi.common.ServiceLocator.getProcessExecutionService(com.appiancorp.services.ServiceContext)
[deprecated] com.appiancorp.suiteapi.common.ServiceLocator.getTypeService(com.appiancorp.services.ServiceContext)
[deprecated] com.appiancorp.suiteapi.common.ServiceLocator.getUserService(com.appiancorp.services.ServiceContext)
[deprecated] com.appiancorp.suiteapi.content.ContentService.getChildren(java.lang.Long, com.appiancorp.suiteapi.content.ContentFilter, java.lang.Integer)
[deprecated] com.appiancorp.suiteapi.process.GenericTypedVariable.<init>()
[deprecated] com.appiancorp.suiteapi.process.GenericTypedVariable.setType(java.lang.Long)
[deprecated] com.appiancorp.suiteapi.process.GenericTypedVariable.setValue(java.lang.Object)
[deprecated] com.appiancorp.suiteapi.process.analytics2.ProcessReport.copy()

Could you please let me know if they have any impact on smart services or functions of the plug-in?

Thank you.

Hi Satya, it is OK to use v2.2.9 right now as the deprecated APIs have not been removed. I'm preparing to release version 2.2.10 that will also include the fixes this situation.
